Gina’s Baked Sea Clam Dip Oreganata

Ingredients

  • 1 (15oz) Can Chopped Sea Clams (Don’t drain juice)
  • 6 Garlic Cloves-minced or 2 T Oh My Garlic or Oh My Garlic Seafood
  • 6 T Butter
  • 1 Medium Onion-minced
  • 1 T Dried Parsley Flakes
  • 1 t. Dried Oregano
  • 1/2 C Italian Panko Breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 C Parmesan Cheese
  • Sprinkle of Paprika on Top for Color

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • In a medium size skillet, saute the butter, onion, and garlic over low heat for a minute or two, being careful not to burn the garlic.
  • Add the clams with their juice, parsley flakes and oregano to your pan and mix.
  • Saute for a few minutes and then add the Italian Panko and Parmesan cheese.  Stir.  The texture of the mixture should be like a paste–add additional panko if needed.
  • Put mixture in greased, oven-proof pie or casserole dish and sprinkle with paprika.
  • Bake in 350 degree oven for 25-30 minutes, or until lightly golden and bubbly.

NOTE:   The serving options are endless.  Use as a dip with crackers or veggies.  Use for stuffing shrimp, sole or lobster.  Add to a clam shell for a delicious Baked Stuffed Clam.
